40th birthday party planning

My husband, Mike, turned forty last month! We’re both in shock 40 happened so quickly 😀 This is one of those milestones that has to be celebrated. We were going to have a party for him a few weeks back, but a couple of days before the weather forecast didn’t look very promising for an outdoor party, so we rescheduled for this weekend. Weather seems to be cooperating, and I’m super excited to finally be able to celebrate him!
Guys are hard. Hard to buy for. And I was also expecting it to be hard to party plan for one. For his 40th I knew it most definitely couldn’t be girly, but I still wanted it to be really special. Keep your guy and his likes in mind when planning and you really can’t go wrong. Here’s what I’m going for:

Izzy’s birthday – tea party
Izzy is all about playing tea. So, for her birthday this year it was a no-brainer. With a new baby, trying to get the house on the market, and Mike being in and out of town, I opted for the easy route. Store bought goodies to the rescue! The ribbon cake was from a local…
We’re Putting in a Pool
I can’t even believe it when I say it. We’re putting in a pool. That’s a sentence I NEVER thought would come out of my mouth. Over the last few years I started thinking about how nice it would be to have one in our backyard, but it wasn’t something my husband and I were…

easy halloween decorating
Last week Izzy asked me why we haven’t put out Halloween decorations yet. I told her it was because it’s still 90 degrees outside and Mommy has a hard time getting in the fall decorating mood when she’s still sweating. She wasn’t having that. So, I drug out some decor but kept it on the…
Halloween Porch Decorations
This year I went a little bigger than I have in the past with our Halloween porch decorations. I’m sure the neighbors thought I had lost my mind when I was first putting this together. Large spiders have been around for a while now, but I recently found a really cool DIY spider web trick…
Hoo could it be?
Last night was Izzy’s first time Trick-or-Treating! And, thank God, she wore her costume!!! She went out with her little friend across the street (I love that she’s not yet 2 and already has a gal pal) and scored some good candy. We’re not talking about the cheap stuff that I passed out, but the…

Newestlooks like a perfect party- can't wait to see pics! happy bday to your hubby! mine had his last month, too, and we didn't do a thing… we were supposed to take a trip but had to cancel for now. so then i planned a wine outing and it rained… so still have done nothing!
This is the first time I've been able to throw him a real party. I planned one for his 35th that fell apart at the last minute (he will never let me forget that one, ha!) so I'm hoping this one will get me out of the birthday dog house 😀
Sounds perfect! My husband and I both turn 40 in Nov and Dec and we have no idea what we want to do. I hope he has an awesome 40th!
Happy early birthday to you both!!! I'm sure you guys will come up with something fun!
It looks like a wonderful party – can't wait to see the pictures! Enjoy the weekend!
It was such a good time! Working on putting the party post together now 🙂
I love these details for a masculine but polished birthday party! The black & white check, and the flowers in the brown glass bottles are so perfect. Hope you had a fantastic time and it all went off without a hitch! Happy birthday to your hubby.
Thank you! It went smoothly and he had a great time!
